satan laughs
satan laughs
In the face
Of a church asleep
As the world burns
Around it
So Rise Up
Get on your feet
Jesus demands to
See it
Evil out of control
Searches
Openly strolls
In our homes
Our children's schools
So do not let it win
Today we must overrule
Its darkened evil
As we stand to defend
Our Lord's voice
So wake up dear church
Join the battle
For the most innocent lives
On this face of this earth
As Jesus returns to
Re-create, to completely re-birth
His perfected new kingdom!
Action’s Name
Would we not say
As it is so much
In the times of our
Today
In such splendid ways
That faith without
Works is dead
In almost all churches
These holy words are
Repeatedly said
So we know to take action
That worship in a building
Is after all but only a fraction
Of what God calls us to
So in this oh so blessed country
We feed the hungry
House the homeless
Try to create a land of
Increasing social justice
But on all of our spiritual lists
There is something definitely amiss
One major point we have missed
Courage to stand up
Out loud to say the name of Jesus
Let people know He is the reason
Behind any of our good deeds
To confront evil
Be courageous
The duty of each & every believer
To call a sin a sin
Only in this way can we
Ever hope to win
More souls
So do not fear
To fight alongside
God's angelic forces
(To your life it will bring no remorse)
So after running your life's course
You may hear
From the lips
Of a Savoir so dear
‘Well done My good & faithful servant’!!
All this Stuff – Why?
Why
do we do all this stuff?
Make all this stuff?
Houses, skyscrapers
Cars, planes, trains
Companies, Corporations
On & on our list goes
All done without once asking
If all our multi-tasking
Fits into any of God's plans
We stepped away
From You so madly
To run so many things
So badly
Now corruption seems
Commonplace so sadly
With all these wars,
Of deaths multiple scores
Each & every day
Men, women, children
Why do we not listen
To ancient words
So well-written
Of God's forever vision
For all of our lives
As down here
We spend the shortest of times
It all seems such a puzzle
If to His voice
We would just listen
And the heart's
Best impulses not muzzle
Imagine a world
Full of such wonders
No foot would ever stumble
Into a dark pain ever again
& His loving, wonderful presence
We would forever win!!
I’m Sorry
I'm sorry for what
We did to you
Holy Christ
But still we do it
Somehow in our crazy
Insane rush to sin
We crucify you over &
Over again
We ignore you
Rejecting that inner plea
To adore you
From that ignorant stance
Within only one
Darkened evil glance
We completely deny
You exist
Becoming what
Is called atheist
Oh, Dearest Son of God
When will we banish
For good such thoughts!
One day you've promised
To return
To gather to yourself
Those who've spurned
A devil's temptation
To deny your royalty
Through their attempts
To express their loyalty
As back into your arms
And heart eternally
will they all be
Gathered most joyfully!
What is it to Love?
What is love
It is to sacrifice
For the sake of another
Not only for a lover
But for a sister or
A brother
It is to resist
Those demonic urgings
To twist
our original innocence
& to stand in defiance
Of that satan's mindless
Darkened call
For us over & over
Again To fall
Into His pit of hell
So give to all our brothers
Be generous with one another
And return to this earth
As was intended from its inception
And our original birth
The ability to sincerely love
& no longer from us
Will God depart
Choosing to return us instead
To that Paradise it is
To live only within His heart!
Ferociously Wonderful!
Ferociously wonderful
Brighter in every way
Than
A million
Or perhaps dare I say
A trillion
Suns
Tirelessly
God, you work
Your Spirit
To usurp
satan's evils
So on and on You go
Trying to grab, grasp
(Even ferociously if You have to)
Our attention
So evil will surrender
And in our hearts
Take its last dying gasp
